A blog dedicated to teaching positive information, feeding, researching, and caring for all kinds of squirrels everywhere, especially in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
I will post a blog whenever I think of a squirrel awareness tip, to talk about my pet squirrels, or when I go "squirrel hiking". The latter is hiking with the intent of watching squirrels.
The main reason why I like squirrels so much is because they are fascinating creatures. There were events in my life that triggered my interest. First, I had a general interest in rodents at age 12, but I narrowed it down to just the squirrel family in my late teens. The squirrel interest may have started with a tame female gray squirrel that a friend of mine and his mom allowed into their house. This squirrel lived outside, but would she come indoors for treats. After this I wanted to know all there is about squirrels. So I've read about the 270+ species of squirrels from all around the world, and I was hooked! I've also hand-fed and petted wild squirrels on college campuses (not recommended; don't just pet ANY wild squirrel.)

Dear Squirrel Man,
In the UK red squirrels have been pushed to the margins of survival by various environmental factors, including (but not solely)the arrival of grey squirrels, which have been very successful. I am an author and have written a children's adventure about this. It's part of a trilogy in which, while the grey squirrels are intially depicted as the bad guys, by the end of the series the reds and the greys are collaborating to defend themselves against their main enemy: man.
I hope you'll consider reading it: it is called The Red Rising
